This full-day bus trip from London visits two historic university cities. The tour begins with a walking tour in Oxford lasting about 90 minutes. You will see the Bodleian Library, one of Europe’s oldest libraries, and explore college courtyards and narrow streets linked to famous alumni like C.S. Lewis and Bill Clinton. After Oxford, the tour stops at Christ Church College for 45 minutes, where you can see the Great Hall featured in the Harry Potter films. Next, the coach travels to Cambridge. The visit starts with a 30-minute stop at Senate House, a building used for degree ceremonies and important university meetings. Then you will spend 15 minutes at the Corpus Clock, a gold-plated timepiece without numbers that displays time using lights. The tour also includes a 10-minute stop at the Mathematical Bridge, a nearly 300-year-old wooden bridge designed using only straight timbers. One of the highlights in Cambridge is a 30-minute visit to King’s College Chapel, known for its gothic architecture, large stained glass windows, and the world’s largest fan vault. The chapel took about a century to build starting in 1446 and houses artwork by Rubens. The day concludes with a return to London at around 7:00 pm. The tour includes a professional guide and travel on a luxury air-conditioned coach. Visits to King’s College and Christ Church College are included if selected when booking.
